So I'm on day two of my challenge. I think it helps to look at this in a much smaller increment. Like I said in yesterdays post...who can't do something for two weeks. :-)

Surprisingly enough, I have been SUPER active the last few days...since I woke up Sunday morning that is 15.06 miles of walking and running. Ohhh and that doesn't count the hours of push mowing that I did on Sunday afternoon! My legs are just cranking out the miles! Feels good!

This morning I saved a tiny turtle from possible demise on my walk. (and this morning was a walk) He was just lounging on the road. I moved him to the grass. Poor little tyke!

Allergy season has been around for a while. In typical years my left eye (just my left eye....go figure) waters for a few days and then I'm OK. Annoying but nothing major. This year....it wouldn't let up. It watered day after day after day. And Sunday night when I went to bed my eye was SORE. I assumed that like normal it would be fine in the morning...and get progressively worse. However Monday morning arrived and my eye was SORE to the touch. I didn't let it stop me...I went running. I went to work and I caved.. The eye hurt....I had tears streaming from that eye.. my eye was swollen ....and it was goopy. . went to the pharmacy and the pharmacist recommended a drop for my eye and I started taking Benedryl. Today it's much better. Still a bit tender and a bit more 'wet' than normal...but over all much better! Look close...you may see the goopy swollen eye!

My hip is still giving me grief....and into my butt cheek. I guess I really am a pain in the ass!

Food wise....SPOT ON! I kept it together yesterday...even though I was DYING for a snack last night! I ignored that demon's call and did well! Today I struggled between getting home from work and having dinner sitting on the table ready to eat. I persevered! Now if the scales just show my efforts (Yes, I'm taking sneak peaks...but my lips are sealed!)

About Me

I am pretty laid back. I enjoy reading, writing and working on my dollhouses. I love to talk to people (so shoot me a message!!). I’m in a serious committed relationship and I look forward to many more years with him! For that reason (and some others) I want to be the healthiest me possible!
